I´m going to start my own challenge.

I am strapped financially every month. Believe me, if you try hard enough you can get by, I order groceries once a month, and in between I work on surveys and get either cash or gift cards and then order things that I might need. I always use a gift card for Amazon to get the dry food for the cats. Lately I have been lucky and a bit gets left over each month,

I hope you don't deprive yourself of necessities and you can manage a month without spending.

Get all the basic minimum needs !! Rest can be awaited

I hope you reach your goal. It's been a challenge the past 2 years to budget the money for groceries and utilities. We're not hard up but it's just astounding to see how our grocery spendings have more than tripled and the gas prices won't drop to an affordable rate. Good thing we've moved to a place that's very near work and school. My husband and kids just walk. We've saved a lot of gas money since.

Food would be the last thing I'd give up, but rather just find ways to stretch the food budget further. But I guess that depends on whether or not you think you have enough to cover the month without replenishing anything.

Somehow, with your love of eggs, I can’t see you going without them, or bread, as you mentioned. I’m sorry things are so tight for you right now. Is there any news on selling your house, and finding a smaller one?

That will be a little hard, but I think you can do it! You will probably get tired of it by the end of the month though! I'm going to message you the name of a site that I use for free gift certificates! It's easy to do!!

June is an extra spending for me since my youngest daughter will go college. I am thinking to have a part time work for some extra money, wish me luck

There is no space in the frieezer anyway (lol)

I should challenge myself, but it is hard because my husband expects to eat meat every day for dinner and that can be expensive. I personally could go without eating meat every day.

All prices are going up, it's hard to have enough money to pay all the bills. I hope you have enough food even if you do not order grocery.

I hope it works out

If you have enough groceries, it would be OK to cut short on them. I buy small amounts of groceries every month and cut short on clothes and delay on any house maintenance work.

Good luck for your own challenge.

I take it you have enough to eat.

You seem to have a lot in your freezer so perhaps you'll be able to meet your challenge.

You can do it! You have your freezer full, don't you?? Good luck.

But what about food?

Not buying food and not having food are too different things. Hope you will not starve in June. See, if there are ways you can get some more household earnings or can roll over money from July to June. Any case, do what you think works for you.Thanks
